| Obverse description | Facing right lion's head rendered in bold relief, displaying characteristic Etruscan artistic style with deeply incised mane striations radiating from the crown and neck. The fierce visage features a prominent open jaw, detailed facial musculature, and a naturalistic eye. Beneath the lion's head, the value mark 'V' (denoting 5 Asses) appears in the lower field. The design is contained within a beaded border, typical of Populonian coinage of this series. |
